JWR place GBM’s Charlotte Vincent at the New Opening Hotel Indigo in Exeter.

Hospitality specialists, JWR answered the call of Castlebridge Hospitality when searching for a top Head Chef to put their new opening restaurant on the map!

Working in partnership with the senior team at Castlebridge Hospitality, the team at JWR got hard to work based on the brief provided to find an exceptional Head Chef that will showcase the best produce the South West has to offer within their brand new restaurant.

Charlotte, who is currently on BBC 2 ‘Great British Menu’, was raised in Exeter and began her career  in the Royal Logistics Corp of the British Army. She later joined Michael Caines at Gidleigh Park, where she worked as a pastry chef, before moving to The Royal Clarence Hotel in the same capacity.
Charlotte took over at The Five Bells in Devon three years ago, earning the pub a place in the UK’s Top 50 Gastropubs shortly afterwards, as well as cooking for the likes of Paul Ainsworth and Boris Johnson when he was PM.

Charlotte’s cooking style is taking nature in its raw form and bringing it to the plate while doing justice to the ingredients. She likes to draw on Nordic influences and techniques and loves a plate to be a taste and smell of our beautiful Devon countryside.

MD, James Webber said; “We are thrilled to see the impact Charlotte is having at Indigo since placing her in the business. Adding her to the already impressive Senior Operations Team, alongside the General Manager and Sales Manager, also placed by ourselves, helps support Castlebridge in launching the hotel with a bang!”
